It was a beauâ€" tiful morning for a church parade. Perhaps that was one of the reasens that there was such a good attendance. The pack met at the Islington public school and, led by the colour party, the pack was %ihpod to St. George‘s ow Hill, & rector, Rev. M. T. N y, took as his text for the sermon the story of the little boy who had in his lunch basket the five loaves of bread and the two fish which the Lord blessed and fed the multitude at Bethseda. The way our rector told that wonderful story, you Cubs could almost see just what a happy experience that little hike into the country was for that little Jewish boy. He kegt his eyes open and so had a very happy day. 1st Thistletown Troop Ist Islington Pack Most of the evening at troop headquarters last Monday (April 22nd) was spent in preparing for parent‘s night, which will be held April 29th. For this event the various patrols will be instructing in different Scout subjects. Patrol Leader Ashwell will be in charge of first aid instruction, Patrol Leader Curtis is responsible for knots and lashes, Patrol Leader Tom Linklater will take signalling, Patrol Leader Vern Edwards will Buide in compass and Patrol Leader on Snider will look after games. Patrol Second D. Hendrick was awarded his second class badge and he is now also entitled to wear the bronze arrowhead, which he earned at theefatrol leader‘s course, which was held February 1st and 2nd. Patrol competition has its ups and downs. The Owl patrol won 50 goints for a %;emeâ€"and it certainly elped a lot because of points lost the week before for not having brought along their Scout staves, The Bear patrol, however, lost 20 points because a very prominent member of the patrol forgot to bring his knotting rope with him to troop meeting. It is the month‘s total that countsâ€"perhaps it will be a different story next Monday. As arranged at tr_ooX meeting we had a hike Friday, April 26th. Part of the troop met Scoutmaster Leonard at Mason‘s Service Station and ‘the rest of the troop met at Wilson‘s store and were taken to the hike ground by Patrol Leaders Ashwell and Snider.

WARN AND SONS BUILDERS â€" CONTRACTORS WESTON, RR. 3 Elmhurst Drive TIMES AND GUIDE, WESTON $COUT The word "group" is used to designate the three sections, Wolf Cub pack, Boy Scout troop or Sea Scout Troop and Rover Scout Crew or Rover Sea Scout Crew. The term "group" applies to the unit even if lacking one or more of the Isect,'mns. In charge of a "group" is the group committee. Each group must have a group comnmtâ€" tee, composed of three or more adult citizens, appointed annually by the governing body of the inâ€" gtitution sponsoring the group, or in the CTE of community groups not spon‘ ored by an institution, elected annually by a meeting of parents of Cubs, Scouts and Rovers all the way up. We went north on the Emery road as fir as Emery, where we turned , and soon reached out destination in a valley, an ideal place for a hike camp. At the camp site each patrol built a fire and prepared their noon meal. After dinner we had two games of flag. The points were won by the Muskrat ahd the Owl patrols. Before returning home we cleaned up the site. Going back we rested for a whileâ€"all that is uc:& Patrol Leader Curtis and Scoutmaster. Curti» started wrestâ€" ling with the Scoutmaster and that ended up with Curtis getting a beating. Considering the fact that a lot of thz Scouts were working the turnâ€"out for the hike was very good. Everybody was home in time for supper. 1st Weston Troop _ 0_ Easter holidays last week kept the troop out of headquarters. However, as Scouts always try to make the best of everything, they turned the meeting into a splendid outdoor meeting. That is, splendid except for tfu cold wind. The troop met in a large field near town. First job to be done was to collect firewood. A fire was lit, and the troop gathered around it, as thi{ were given instruction by Mr. R. Leonard of 1st Thistletown in estimatinig distance. 8 When darkness came and it was too dark as well as too cold for further instruction, the troop took part in some night games. A talk followed by discussion about _ the summer camp . held around the campfire was a fine way" to bring the meeting to a close. ‘ , But what a fire it was to put out â€"afterwards.
